Ice Cream Sandwich Cake S’more Style

Our super easy S’mores Ice Cream Sandwich Cake is the best way to beat the heat with this semi-homemade 2-in-1 dessert hack: crushed graham crackers, Cool Whip, mini marshmallows, chocolate bars, and marshmallow fluff are combined and frozen between two store-bought ice cream sandwiches.

This ice cream cake is an easy-to-assemble, mouth-watering mash-up of the traditional s’mores tastes transformed into a cold frozen treat with an icebox cake texture.

Unlike the campfire classic, this no-bake smores dessert does not have a graham cracker base but instead mixes the cookie as crumbles with the chocolate and marshmallow and spreads it in the middle of ice cream sandwiches.
